Social Media Scoop for Seniors is the official blog for the SeniorNet community. The purpose of this blog is to provide basic and relevant information about social media for seniors who want to learn more about social technologies and how it can enhance their lives. With thousands of social media tools, websites, apps, widgets, and gizmos available on the Internet, we understand it may all seem a bit overwhelming at first, which is why our blog posts contain practical, easy-to-understand, “geek-speak-free” information and instructions.

Kim Hong is the Editor of Social Media Scoop for Seniors and Assistant PR Director at SeniorNet. She is also the Director of Community and Public Relations at Winster.com, a social networking site for older adults who enjoy playing online games.

Tejdipto Bose is the Webmaster and has been part of the SeniorNet team since 2011. He is responsible for maintaining SeniorNet’s website and Social Media Scoop for Seniors. Currently residing in Maryland, he is a graphic designer, web designer and developer.
